    I think you could have wedged one more stick in right behind the cab on the drivers side. Just say'in - if your gonna load, you might as well have a full load.;lol

    I can't see the cab but there is always room in the front passenger seat. Yes I am talking from experience. Only did it once cause I was back off the road quite aways and I had dropped a small dead hickory to finish off a load that I had started. Ended up with too much and I just could not leave that hickory lay there. Made the mistake of telling a friend and now I have to hear about. LOL

    A truck isn't full until you have a few rounds tucked under the hood.

    Nice "bucking"
    No bark, the wood is probably dry enough to burn.
    Looks like it's time for some side boards :)

    Dave most is bone dry,hard as a rock,most is laying on the ground and has been for 10 years according to the landowner.Alot is dead standing air dried definitely a good find 1/4 from my house. But it's tangled mess of grapevines and such,ya gotta cut a path wide enough for an atv and a cart. That's why it takes so long getting a truckload.

    That poor truck . . . I am curious . . . was the split near the rear license plate a) an attempt to hide your license plate from view so it wouldn't be on the internet, b) an attempt to get just a little more wood home, c) an attempt at some hearth.com humor or d) all of the above?

    Looks like wicked good wood!!!

    I have the exact same Toyota but its an 04. This is my third one too. Had a 91 then a 97 now an 04 with 150,000 mi.
    I had the frame inspected by the dealer and they found it weak with rust and replaced the frame, springs, bushings, brake lines, gas lines etc .
    Didn't cost me a penny. Dealer told me cost to Toyota was over $12,000.
    Turns out they have a program not a recall- 00-04 free replacement of frame. 95-99 buy truck for 1.5 times the book value (if rust is found)

    Right on,they inspected mine last summer,no rust just minor surface,but since I bought 4 trucks from them they replaced the same things that they did on yours in one day,amazing I'm not complaining,I'll run her awhile longer only 86000 on her.
